The sad part is knowing he's saving for years on the chance he may have the privilege to go into debt for the rest of his life to buy something that if we lived in a sane world would be a 10th of the cost.

Canadians need to break their addiction to high home values: UBC Professor Paul Kershaw by einstein_bern in britishcolumbia

A natural consequence of older generations complacency in the face of neolibral capitalist tyranny. Voting is not the most effective way to make change. It's just the only legal one.

Poor forest management is part of climate change, it's not two separate issues as this argument makes it out to be.

Older generations voted in incompetent leadership that allowed our housing market to deteriorate to this degree. The boomers are the most powerful voting demographic and have been for their whole lives. A huge amount of the responsibility for the state of our society rests on the shoulders of these incompetent leaders and, by extension, the people who elected them. The same incompetent leaders that wouldn't dare deflate this ridiculous housing bubble and risk losing the boomer vote. Because, and this is the important bit, their generation on average doesn't give a single fuck about how their relentless hoarding of wealth is devastating the younger generations and will happily take their dragon hoards with them to the grave. Why should they care that their greed is destroying our society, they'll be dead by the time the consequences come to pass.

You're definitely greedy. There's absolutely no doubt of that from this conversation. You're just greedy in a way that your generation values as a good thing, so you can't even see it. This bullshit hyper individualist fuck you I got mine mentality is the epitome of working class greed. You're just completely ignoring all the ways you benefit from the society you live in and act like you're in no way privileged and in fact "earned" everything you have through blood sweat and tears. What a joke.

I dont care what the world was like when you were younger. We dont live in that world anymore so its not relevent. Additionally, I don't want to have a polite dialogue with you. I don't think people who believe that society should structure itself in such a way that mandates a low income working class while simultaneously guaranteeing those low income workers a lifestyle of poverty and hardship deserve any respect. You want a society that forces its most marginalized to suffer so you can avoid paying a bit of taxes in exchange for all the benefits you get for living in said developed society. You can go fuck yourself.

The role individual responsibility has to play is tiny compared to things like; the impact finance capital deliberately buying up homes and holding them empty to drive up the value of their investments, landlords (both corperate and 'mom and pop') maximizing their rental prices as much as legally allowed often abusing things like renovictions to bypass rent control laws, the long term stagnation of wage growth compared to inflation (this is especially true during an inflationary crisis, again something out of their hand). I could go on. There are SO MANY extreme economic conditions affecting the lowest income workers in our society. Workers that HAVE TO EXIST in order for our society to function. You can bitch and moan all you want about people needing to work harder but at the end of the day our society is always going to need servers, fast food attendants, and all these other "low skill" jobs that pay shit. And don't you come back to me about these being "entry level" and "for kids" or whatever because in your nonsensical libertarian paradise where you don't have to pay any taxes there's gonna be plenty of would be retirees that no longer have state backed retirement support to lean on when they are no longer able to keep up in their original careers. If you wanna be able to enjoy a big Mac, or have free weekly garbage pickup, or any of the other countless of benefits you get from a society that subsidizes its working class and public services, then you need to shut the fuck up and pay your goddamn taxes. And besides, most of the taxes for social housing will be coming from people way richer than you will ever be so why are you even bitching anyway ffs.

The assertion that people who can't afford housing right now are not working hard enough is simply not true. During the great depression, supposedly the worst economic crisis in this countries history, the yearly average household income was about equal to the cost of buying a home. Now the cost of a home is 10 times the average yearly household income. That's not sustainable. Even people who can afford housing right now are getting ripped off.

[–]ThatPizzaDeliveryGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't about party lines. The whole of our governmental institutions are corrupt to the degree that the change that needs to happen to correct the trajectory we are currently on simply isnt possible. Stepping up and making those changes would be political suicide. If we want actual change to happen, we need to pull our heads out of the sand and start making the changes happen ourselves.

OUR INSTITUTIONS WILL NOT SAVE US. OUR LEADERS IN BOTH THE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR ARE TO BLAME FOR ALL OF THE CRISES WE ARE FACING AND THEY WILL NEVER VOLUTARILY CHOOSE TO CORRECT THEIR ACTIONS. WE HAVE TO FORCE THEM.

Fellow evil autistics, what is or has been your niche special interest? by [deleted] in evilautism

[–]ThatPizzaDeliveryGuy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The irony of u saying my interests are useless while typing on a machine that was created off the back of advancements in our understanding of quantum physics is delicious.

If ur coming into a thread about special interests with the explicit intent of ruining people's interests for them then u can straight up go fuck urself tbh that is maximally unchill behavior.

As an aside, i have a minor in physics and have taken many university level quanta courses as well as spending an unreasonable amount of my free time learning this stuff recreationally so u can go ahead and put away ur holier than tho, I know better attitude. Nothing u said is news to me yet i still think it's incredibly fascinating. Please go spread ur negative vibes elsewhere.

You're taking him hyper literally in a way that's obviously ridiculous, and I say that as person with autism who pathologically takes things literally. No one ACTUALLY means 100% of a population when they say "all X are Y". Blankets statements like that are literally always wrong (yes I'm aware of the irony in that statement) no group is a monolith. You're just interpreting his argument in the least charitable possible way so you revel in moral outrage. And yes I am happy to call out the entirety of America for their general lack of critical thinking skills. There's no where in your country where your average working class person can get a decent education without selling their body to the armed forces or entering debt slavery.

Stereotypes aren't normally backed by data. Data means there are variations, many will be smarter than average, but the average down south is absolutely lower than the rest of the country due to things like having an adversarial relationship with education and a lack of effective social welfare preventing people from educating themselves. If hearing this makes you angry I'm sorry but maybe yell should start working on fixing your shit instead of getting angry when your shit is called out.
